Plan Your Free Online Education at Lifehacker U: Spring Semester 2012

What Is Lifehacker U? Whether you're in school and getting ready to head back for the spring semester, or you're out of school and just want to keep learning and growing, there are an incredible amount of free, university-level courses that become available on the web every school year, and anyone with a little time and a passion for self-growth can audit, read, and "enroll" in these courses for their own personal benefit.

I have become a big fan of free education to supplement my not-as-free education. I really enjoy taking classes through Coursera and EdX (prefer Coursera), and love the ability to take a class through some top-notch schools and programs without having the burden of tuition!
